Interpretable Diagnosis for Whole-Slide Melanoma Histology Images Using Convolutional Neural Network
At present, deep learning-based medical image diagnosis had achieved high performance in several diseases. However, the black-box nature of the convolutional neural network (CNN) limits their role in diagnosis. In this study, a novel interpretable diagnosis pipeline using the CNN model was proposed....

At present, deep learning-based medical image diagnosis had achieved high performance in several diseases.
